Bamboozled!

LIME

Lime were full of beans this morning and it could have been the sun that had put them in such a good mood! A trio started a band by the climbing tree and were all drumming along to some famous rhythms, most notably the ‘can can’. Audiences gathered to hear the songs and the reviews were glowing! Another group started their own pizza restaurant which delivered all kinds of flavours and drinks to customers. In the digging zone, a few people made a safe and began to put lots of precious rocks inside.

 

WILLOW

Between the 2 sessions, a whole lot of bamboo had been chopped down and it was like Christmas morning for Willow class. They scrambled to pick up as much as they could for their next business venture…’The Red Robin Pub’! A wooden Robin mascot had been brought in from home especially for Forest! They used the bamboo to build more walls in the den, while others got making food items (mainly tacos and sandwiches). There were a few discrepancies about the prices, after someone’s bill came to £102 but it was mostly harmonious!

 

EYFS

The bamboo had doubled since Wednesday and you could hear the ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs’ from the little adventurers as the entered the forest. They decided to build some wonderful dens and practiced their best sharing and safest carrying of the sticks. Someone mentioned that there isn’t too much bamboo left for the panda’s so maybe we should send some over to China but then they realised they didn’t know how to do that. The session then finished with some more high energy games of hide and seek to keep the cold out!

 

BEECH

Beech class were equally as impressed by the bamboo and set to work making 4 dens. There was a bit of mis communication with whose sticks were whose but instead of that turning into a big argument, they decided to work together! One den was even fitted with a tarp over the top and they were very proud of their waterproof pub (they’d been speaking to Willow class!). The boat adventure was still taking place for one group and they used the bamboo to make the sails on their ship stronger. A Sainsbury’s was made too!

 

MAPLE

Maple class were very impressed with some of Beech class’ dens and they decided to build upon their great work using the bamboo. They turned one into a bamboo shop that not only sold bamboo but bamboo flavoured food and drink too! Another group founded a Panda Rescue Centre, where they rehabilitated and rehomed cute pandas.  The digging zone was very popular too, as people were scraping the floor with their shovels to clean it. Speaking of cleaning, someone found a piece of bamboo that looked like a broom and swept the whole forest!
